WITH the recent spate of charity scandals hitting our shores, charities are finding it harder to win over the donor's dollar.
And it does not help that walking down Singapore's busier streets brings you toe to toe with people asking you to donate or help with their causes.
So how do you determine which organisation is legit?

1st ) the guy running it must not be an Indian..............almost everyone will agree with me on this.........
2nd) when the guy starts to do all sorts of death-defying acts......................
3rd) when the guy is a yuppie Christian living a rich lifestyle..................with a pop-singer-wannabe of a wife..............
avoid any charities with the above 3.................
It all started with a plumber...
All it need is one person with guts.
Hard to trust seriously, its always hard to pass your money to a middle man and expect the money to get delivered to the poor. I always donate the money to the poor themself, otherwise its just dumping money into the drain

families of 9/11 victims had to sue Red Cross in court to get the money donated to them............
